This song came about after Ryan watched The movie "Blade Runner" for the first time. He liked it so much he said The Last Alliance should write a song about it.
So that's this track, it is inspired by the Ridley Scott film as well as the Phillip K. Dick novel "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep".
The point of view of the lyrics switches between a human (Probably Deckard) in the verses and then takes the view point of The Replicants in the choruses, Who want nothing more than to live in the same world as the humans who created them.
The title "Dangerous Days" was originally considered as the title of the film before it became "Blade Runner". So we used it instead :)
lyrics
Rising up
to see the new city of lights
I am the one they all fear
And I have returned
They escaped
They will not escape me
I am the best, I never rest
Till they are dead Replicant
The flame that burns twice as bright
Burns half as long
The ones that made us the way we are
They all must fall
All we want was the chance to be
Equal in life
Don't take from us our god given right
To live among you all
I know the ways I know the signs
to tell them apart
The world is changed, It's not the same
Since the final war
Human form with metal core
And no sympathy
This world is ours, we have the power
to destroy them all Replicant.
The flame that burns twice as bright
Burns half as long
The ones that made us the way we are
They all must fall
All we want was the chance to be
Equal in life
Don't take from us our god given right
To live among you all
